Democrats quickly seized on a story:soldiers at Walter Reed

And so they should have!!!! Did you see the news clips of the FILTH there??? It was even more horrendous than I could have imagined!!! With all our modern medicine, this just should NOT have ever happened...

The Democrats are doing their jobs, and they SHOULD hold SOMEONE accountable for allowing this to get this far!!!!

Our Soldiers deserve MUCH MUCH MUCH better!!!!

I had a friend relate a story to me regarding his 'treatment' at a VA hospital. He was in for a yearly checkup regarding some 'inoperable' shrapnel in his hip from Korea. He was offered a cane to help 'ease' his pain. He threw the cane at the doctor when he found 'Made in China' on it.....

This issue needs to be taken more steps forward, INVESTIGATE the entire VA system!!!!

I know so very many Vetrans who can go just to our local office and be treated like crap. The stories I have heard is just plain WRONG to do our Vet's that way!!!!

NO ONE in the local office possesses a heart... exact words from FIVE guys I work with.

It is so sad to expect them to be trained, go out and do their job, then all the promises that they were promised fall by the wayside!!!

I am very sad over some of the things I have heard... which is WHY I say that our Entire VA System needs an overhaul. I could go into details, but I am afraid it would give away their identities, and that is the last thing I would want to do!!!

Colbert county used to have a great guy. Haven't been there in severall years, though. One of the guys at State level used to be a member of the Hitler Jugend -- that frosted my shorts.

The one there has treated my Dad like CRAP for a long time. And that isn't necessary!!!! That is NOT what they get PAID to do.

My Dad was in Active Duty for 8 years, and then served 30+ in the National Guard... if that doesn't entitle him for the benefits, then no one should be entitled, and all offices need to be just closed. (note the sarcasm)

My Dad served in the War, and was injured, not disabled, but injured, and now that he is 80 years old, they treat him as if he don't matter to anyone!!! That makes me so mad that I SEE red and I haven't taken him back there in a LONG time...

Those people over there are NOT GOD!!!!

Try telling THEM that!

Oh trust me, next time I have to take him over there, I will... I sure will. I now know WHO to go to for a complaint to get their attention, complete with phone number given to me by someone who is on the State Board for Veterans Affairs...
